02 — The Problem
The Site Was Compromised
Shivam Autozone contacted WebAdish after discovering that shivamnexa.com had been hacked. Attackers had injected malicious code into the site, which posed serious risks to anyone visiting the website — including potential data exposure and redirection to harmful destinations.
For a business that relies on its website to drive enquiries and maintain customer relationships, every hour of downtime or compromised experience directly impacts revenue and reputation. The priority was clear: restore the site fast, restore it securely, and restore it completely.
⚠️ The Risk: Malicious code injected into a live business website can steal visitor data, redirect users to phishing pages, damage SEO rankings, and trigger search engine blacklisting — all of which carry long-term consequences if left unaddressed.
03 — Our Approach
The Recovery Process
Our team followed a structured emergency recovery protocol — designed to move quickly while ensuring nothing was missed. Here is exactly what happened, step by step.
Step 1 — Immediate Assessment
As soon as Shivam Autozone flagged the issue, our team gained access to the hosting environment and performed a full diagnostic scan across all site files, the database, and server configurations. The goal at this stage was to understand the full scope of the compromise before touching anything.
Step 2 — Malicious Code Identification
Our security specialists pinpointed exactly where the malicious code had been inserted. This included examining core WordPress files, theme files, and any recently modified or added files that did not belong. Every line of injected code was catalogued before removal began.
Step 3 — Complete Malware Removal
All malicious code was removed cleanly. We did not simply delete files or restore a potentially compromised backup — each infected file was sanitised individually to preserve legitimate site content while stripping out everything that did not belong.
Step 4 — Full Functionality Verification
Once the site was cleaned, we ran a comprehensive verification pass across every page and feature. All forms, navigation, product listings, and core functionality were tested and confirmed to be working as intended. The site was back to full operational status.
04 — The Outcome
Results
✓ Recovery Time
The entire site was identified, cleaned, verified, and restored to full functionality in under 24 hours — from first contact to a fully operational website.
✓ Malicious Code
All injected malware was located and completely removed. A follow-up scan confirmed zero traces of malicious activity remaining anywhere on the site.
✓ Business Impact
Shivam Autozone’s online presence was fully restored with zero data loss. Customer enquiries and site functionality resumed without interruption.
